A beautiful set of railings safely enclose your outdoor living spaces while adding value and curb appeal to your home. Like many aspects of exterior home products, it’s so important that railings are done right and with the correct materials. This is why Modern Windows offers professionally crafted rail systems to suit all home aesthetics while ensuring peace of mind.
Manufactured right here in BC, we offer a selection of aluminum picket, glass and topless glass railing systems with a wide variety of customizations. Have your railing tailor-made to enhance stunning ocean views with topless railings, add privacy to a glass railing with obscured glass panels, choose custom heights, or colour-match with your home’s trim.
When all is said and done, relax and enjoy your upgraded deck or patio, knowing that your new ultra-durable and weather-resistant railing system is covered by our 20-year limited warranty.
Reasons to Update Your Railing System
- Increase property value - a gorgeous deck or patio space goes a long way when selling a home. Buyers want to be able to envision themselves enjoying all the property has to offer and knowing they won’t need to replace decking materials is a huge benefit.
- Safety - railings not installed to code with improper spacing or railings that aren’t properly secured is a major safety hazard and a big source of stress.
- It’s dated - maybe your wooden railing is splintering and requires frequent touch-ups, or your older metal railing is rusting. Either condition will detract from the appearance of your home.
